Hey 👋

Chairwoman [ author ]

I'm here once again

Chairwoman [ author ]

Let's start our story

---------------

Ruth returns to the hallway, and the guards are waiting for him there. They seem much more cautious now than before.

[ ENCOUNTER START ]

？？？

HEAVILY ARMED GUARD: You are the one who escaped before, aren't you? Get him. Do not let him get away this time.

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

....

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

{ Erebus }

{ } - talking in mind

Ruth summoned Erebus and commanded him to attack the guards, in order to check his fighting capabilities. Erebus obeys without a question.

Erebus [ Darkness ]

*suddenly emerges from the shadows of one of the guard with lightening fast speed and in a single bite rips apart the guard's neck, feasting on the meat as he disappears into the shadows*

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

💭 hmm

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

*impressed*

The guards were taken off-guard and try to attack Ruth

Erebus [ Darkness ]

*emerges from the shadows once again and bite another guard's arm off, leaving the guard disarmed*

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

{ that's enough Erebus, I'll handle the rest }

Erebus [ Darkness ]

{ ok }

Erebus [ Darkness ]

*moves away from the guard and disappears into the shadows*

The guards are terrified after seeing Erebus's display of power

The guards now know that it will be suicide of they fight against you, however, they have no other choice, and they ready up for the fight

The disarmed guards lunges towards Ruth with a spear in his hand

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

*kills him easily*

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

Boring

Despite being well-trained and advanced guards, they can hardly match up to Ruth's level. It's like fighting against a paper-thin dummy.

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

*knocks down the spear of a guard with ease and lunge at him, sending him sprawling on the ground*

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

*picks up a spear laying on the ground and finish the guard with a slash on his neck*

The guards falls to the ground, dead

The last advanced guards sex this and runs away in fear. The other guards have no choice but to retreat and report this incident too the higher-ups.

Ruth Malloy [ MC ]

💭 where do you think you're going

Ruth quickly engage the remaining guards and cut down the guards with ease. The guards are unable to fight back due to Ruth's superior skills. A guard tries to attack, but Ruth easily avoid the attack and counters with a slash that cuts through the guard's shield

After the fight, Ruth notices that the room away guards haven't come back. It was clear that he was terrified after witnessing Ruth's power.

The guards have retreated for now
